I was with our Cubs at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.barnswoodscoutcamp.co.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\">Barnswood<\/a> and took the photo after I&#8217;d taken some rubbish down to the bins. The sun was rising and I thought it was too good an opportunity to miss. I rather wished I had a real camera with me at the time, but you can&#8217;t really carry a camera around when emptying bins!<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">I took about 7 or 8 photos and thought I&#8217;d be able to put them together back at home to form a panorama. When I did, I used Photoshop&nbsp; and this came out.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.nawbus.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/barnswood-large1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px\" height=\"102\" alt=\"Barnswood (Large)\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.nawbus.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/barnswood-large-thumb1.jpg\" width=\"384\" border=\"0\"\/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Not bad I thought! I wasn&#8217;t too happy with the join lines, but still it gave the right idea.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Then today, I was looking up some other info for something I wanted to do in Photoshop and I came across a little programme called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cs.ubc.ca\/~mbrown\/autostitch\/autostitch.html\" target=\"_blank\">Autostitch<\/a>. This takes the individual photos and combines them to form a panorama but without the join lines! Reading a bit more into the site, I found out that this application is incorporated into <a href=\"http:\/\/explore.live.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Windows Live Photogallery<\/a>! So using that, I came up with this.<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.nawbus.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/04112006094-stitch1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px\" height=\"93\" alt=\"04112006094 Stitch\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.nawbus.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/06\/04112006094-stitch-thumb1.jpg\" width=\"386\" border=\"0\"\/><\/a> <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">No join lines! So after cropping and resizing to the correct dimensions, I&#8217;ve now got the improved image as my header. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The photo at the top of my blog was taken on my then mobile phone, a Nokia N80, on a Saturday morning in November 2006.
